Traveling in reverse through the Yu-Gi-Oh! world with the MD system

Hearing Soleva's deliberately lowered voice, Yuma realized that Soleva might have guessed most of what he was thinking from his reaction. He didn't try to hide anything from Soleva, but quietly relayed Astral's words to Soleva, avoiding Kotori and Tetsuo.

After listening, Soreva realized something was wrong and immediately summoned the golden Tyrannosaurus Eye Mark, which possessed Zero's power, allowing him to communicate directly with the astral body:

“Astral Body, you said that [No.] card deepened the control over the shark? Does that mean that the previous [No.] card didn't completely control the shark?”

Soreva, on the other hand, received a nod of approval from the astral body:

“That’s right, based on the feedback I received, the shark wasn’t originally controlled by [No.] card, but now…”

Although the astral body didn't say the rest aloud, Soreva understood what he meant and immediately raised his hand to support his throbbing forehead:

"Hiss—what a terrible thing!"

It was truly a tragedy. After all, who could have imagined that, despite the shark's intense hatred for IV, he still wasn't completely controlled by [No.] Card using that hatred?

On the contrary, it was IV who thought the shark was controlled by [No.] Card, who actually planned today's duel in order to free the shark from [No.] Card's control.

Unexpectedly, this duel, in which he had the advantage to reach this point, has instead intensified the shark's control over [No.] Card. This can only be described as a cruel twist of fate.

Just as Soreva was expressing his feelings, the shark's eyes did indeed blink and instantly regain their sparkle, causing Iron Man and Little Bird, who thought the shark had finally rallied, to cheer for him.

Only Yuma, Astral, and Soreva, who saw through the shark's hateful eyes, understood that the shark was probably completely controlled by [No.] Ka.

This very shark, at this moment, pressed its finger to the top of the deck and roared as if in a scream:

"My turn! Draw a card!"

Chapter 448 The White Dragon's Counterattack

Although the light flashed across the shark almost imperceptibly in the lava field, IV, standing opposite the shark, could still vaguely see the purple light flash across its body.

"What was that? A hallucination? But..."

Looking at the resolute shark opposite him, IV felt a bad premonition rising in his heart. Even though the shark's eyes were filled with the same hatred as before, he still had this feeling:

Sharks today are different from sharks of the past.

The shark, looking at the card added to its hand, immediately smiled. If the power it had just gained from [Sea Bite Shark] only gave it hope of victory...

Now, the card in his hand is enough to amplify the glory of victory infinitely.

"Then, IV, watch closely! This is the new power I've gained to defeat you! For revenge, I'm willing to accept anything!"

Hearing the shark's declaration and seeing the flames of revenge burning brightly in its eyes, IV felt increasingly uneasy, and couldn't help but question the shark:

"What are you planning to do, shark!"

The shark's subsequent call to his own player, [Sea Bite Shark], became the best response to IV's question:

"Come on, [Sea Bite Shark]! Accept my wish and evolve!"

As the shark spread its arms, a thick stream of magma began to erupt from its back, and under the glow of this magma, the shark's figure seemed to have transformed.

It resembled a shark, but its face and entire body were covered in purple, and it wore a crimson cloak.

However, as the lava fell, the shark standing there appeared to be a normal shark, showing no change whatsoever. Perhaps, that figure was truly just an illusion.

As [Sea Bite Dragon Shark] roared, the shark raised its right arm high, clenching its fist above its head. But even with its fist clenched tightly, it could not stop the brilliant red light from overflowing from its hand.

"I will use [Sea Bite Dragon Shark Dragon], Chaos Xyz Transformation!"

The shark's roar immediately drew the attention of the birds and the iron man to Yuma, since they had only ever heard the phrase "chaotic hypertransformation" from Yuma.

However, when they turned their heads, they saw Yuma's astonished and shocked expression.

Clearly, the shark's [chaotic hypertransformation] was not taught by Yuma.

With the shark's roar, the Xyz Summoning portal opened once more. This time, however, countless purple specks of light fell from the portal, as if a purple rain was falling in this sacred lava land.

The shark, drenched by the purple rain, was finally completely enveloped in a purple light, and even its fists were now surrounded by purple orbs of light.

"Eee ...

Amidst the roar of the shark, [Sea Bite Shark] transformed into a brown, cone-shaped object, slowly rising into the Xyz Summoning channel and illuminating the blue glow.

After the blue light shone, the shark raised its paw and called out:

"Appear, [CNo.32]! The strongest fang awakened from the dark abyss! [Sea Bite Dragon Shark Dragon - White Fiend] (Original)!"

Blue water swirled and fell from the Xyz Summoning channel, and within the vortex of this water, a pair of bright yellow, domineering eyes suddenly lit up. Then, white fins with black claws tore through the swirling water.

Next, what appeared before everyone was a sea dragon whose entire body was so white that it was almost eerie. The purple crystals embedded in its body added to its sinister aura when they lit up.

However, judging from its appearance, people can still see that it is similar to the original [Sea Bite Dragon Shark Dragon].

This [Sea Bite Shark Dragon - White Fiend] is indeed the evolved form of [Sea Bite Shark Dragon]!

"Great!"

With the appearance of [Shark Dragon - White Demon], Iron Man, who was initially filled with worry about the shark but unaware of its true form, immediately cheered.

"This [Shark Dragon White Fiend] has no string pointer, so it won't destroy at the end of this turn and deal damage to the shark's LP!"

Well done, shark!

Perhaps Tetsuo's last shout was too loud, so much so that even IV heard it clearly and immediately smiled disdainfully, saying:

"Ha! It's just a monster with an attack power of 2800 points after all. It thinks it can break through my [Heavenly Strings]..."

"Then, how about adding this card as well?"

Before IV could finish speaking, he saw the shark opposite him reveal the last card he had just drawn.

"I activate a Quick-Play Spell Card, [Energy Bullet]! When this card is Special Summoned to your field as a WATER Xyz Monster, you can activate this effect! Use this card as Xyz Material and tuck it under that monster!"

As this card lit up on the shark's field, a golden ball of light flew out from the card and circled around [Shark Dragon - White Demon].

And then the sound of a shark rang out:

"When a monster that uses this card as an Xyz Material attacks, that monster's ATK increases by 1000 points only during the damage calculation phase!"

Hearing this result, IV, who had been severely slapped in the face, looked terrible, but... thankfully...

After all, with his 2800 LP, taking 800 combat damage isn't a big problem. After accumulating hand and graveyard resources in the previous turn, he can still put up a fight in the next turn even with only half of his LP left.

however……

"Then, I activate the effect of [Shark Dragon White Demon]! Remove one Xyz Material from this card!"

As [Shark Dragon White Fiend] swallowed one of the two Xyz Materials surrounding it, a white beam of light immediately shot out from its mouth and surged toward [Heavenly String Player].

The shark's voice then explained the effect:

"Then, this monster can banish one monster with '[Shark]' in its name from its Graveyard and reduce the ATK of one monster on your opponent's field by the same amount!

I am removing the [Sea Bite Shark Dragon] that I just sent to the graveyard as an overkill from the game!

Instantly, the white light spewed out by [Shark Dragon - White Fiend] transformed into the shape of [Sea Bite Dragon Shark Dragon], and with a single finger pointed at [Heavenly String Player]:

"I choose to reduce [Heavenly String Player's] attack power!"

It then crashed into [Heavenly String Player], causing [Heavenly String Player]'s original 3000 attack power to drop to a pitiful 200 points.

Faced with such a [heavenly string player], the shark did not hesitate to launch an attack:

"Now, attack [Heavenly String Player], [Shark Dragon - White Fiend]! [Deep Sea Chaos Bite]!"

Then, a dense, deep purple beam of light surged forth from the mouth of [Shark Dragon - White Fiend], whose attack power had risen to 3800 points. However, in mid-air, the beam of light exploded and fell like a rain of light.

Just like the purple light rain that had just been poured over the shark.

However, the current rain of light is far more lethal than the previous rain of light. Countless fine purple beams of light pierced through [Heavenly String Player], whose attack power was only 200 points.

As [Heavenly String Player]'s body exploded, the IV and LP affected by the explosion also dropped to 0.

The surrounding lava volcano-like arena also turned into points of light and dissipated as the shark won, leaving only the technologically advanced arena behind.

Chapter 449 IV: An Apology, Sharks and Swimming Horses Embarking on the Road Forward

"IV, I won. Now, I have finally defeated you."

IV, who had collapsed to his knees, gasping for breath after the explosion of [Heavenly Strings], heard the shark's voice in his ear and immediately struggled to raise his head, saying to the shark:

“Shark, if this is the revenge you desired, then you have succeeded. But…”

Slowly standing up, IV reached out and grasped the shark's shoulder, speaking words of advice.

"Now that your revenge has been achieved, Shark, don't let the hatred in your heart continue to be controlled by [No.] Card! This chain of hatred ends here!"

“IV, you…”

Upon hearing IV's words, Shark's expression froze for a moment. He had never imagined that IV, whom he had defeated, would say such a thing. Based on his previous understanding of IV, IV should have been wearing a sour face and showing resentment at this moment.

Meanwhile, [Sea Bite Dragon], who had already deeply merged with the shark, sensed that the shark's heart had begun to waver slightly because of IV's words, and it was vaguely planning to let go of this hatred.

But what if the shark decides to let go of its hatred, and the [Sea Bite Dragon] manages to control the shark by exploiting the hatred in its heart?

So, in order to avoid being abandoned by the sharks, [Sea Bite Dragon] immediately began to manipulate his mind:

"Shark, is simply defeating him enough revenge? Your sister is still lying in a hospital bed because of him!"

Shark, don't let go of your hatred; go after his family too. Turn everyone close to him into someone like your sister, so he can feel the pain you've endured!

In an instant, the number "32" flashed in the shark's eyes. Now, having just fully accepted the power of the [Sea Bite Dragon], the shark was completely unable to resist the [Sea Bite Dragon]'s control over it, and immediately grabbed the collar of the IV in front of it:

"You, who have caused Rio to become like this and can only lie in a hospital bed, have no right to say such things! I will make you experience the pain of seeing your loved ones become like that!"

"Hey! Didn't you have a little brother named III last time? Tell him to come out here!"

"Shark! What happened to Rio was my fault! But it has nothing to do with III!"

Hearing that the shark was so obsessed that it even planned to harm its own family, IV, who had always felt he was in the wrong, couldn't help but angrily shake off the shark's hand that was grabbing his collar.

However, upon recalling that the throne was currently in a similar state to Rio's, a trace of sadness appeared on IV's face:

"Moreover, if you long for me to understand the pain of seeing your loved one become like your sister is now, I already understand."

Now, my father, like your sister, is in a coma, lying in a hospital bed. So…”

With these emotions in mind, IV bowed deeply towards the shark.

“I know that no matter how much I apologize, I may not be able to get your forgiveness, so I don’t expect you to forgive me. You can hate me however you want, but at this moment, I still hope that you, Shark, will not be controlled by the hatred in your heart and [No.] card.”

"I……"
